I thank the Minister of State for his genuine and very kind response to our legislation. I wish I could say the same about some of his colleagues here, but anyway, I will come back to the timed amendment piece. I have to bring that up again. It is becoming a regular feature and I am worried about it. It is being used in how the Government engages with legislation in this Seanad. As I said earlier, it is cynically undermining our parliamentary work going forward. It blocks us from doing the real work we want to do.
